sry i cant help you but all i can say is lol, i never heard of that in my life.

But, did you try a different browser? is it in windows media only? or did u try flash or quicktime?

yeah...pretty wierd huh? it just plays using flash i think. videos on other websites play just fine, and this is the first time this has ever happened. it's only happening using ie7...plays fine when i view the video using my msn browser.

edit: and it's only the video part that freezes unless i move the mouse...the audio plays fine.
